Anyone else NOT eat/drink after kids?

My DH doesn't understand why on earth I refuse to drink or eat after ANY of my kids! They range from 10 yrs old down to 3! His argument with me is that it's "half" his germs!! (Weird way of putting it)! Anyways, it bothers me that he cares so much.. If we are out and the someone needs a drink I will give it to them but then it's theirs! Lol I don't think DH has caught a glimpse of a cup in the sunlight that has floater fluttering around! Maybe I'm an off mom, anyone else feel this way?

I'll share some stuff with my son, but he's 15 now so he's not a sloberer lol. When he was little no way!!! I never could understand those moms that took their kids half eaten food & then eat it. To me it groses me out. I even knew one mom that would chew her kids gum. ewww, ewww, ewww!!!!!

Um. No, I don't either and I think it's gross. I have a friend whose kid dropped something out of their mouth. She picked it up and ate it. I wanted to throw up. I don't even let my kid drink out of my drink.

I will give my kids a bit of my food or a sip of my drink, but I wouldn't eat off of their plate or drink from their cup. Kids are gross. LOL They pick their nose and touch all kinds of gross things. Some of them backwash too!! Yuck :)

When my son first learned drinking out of straws and stuff he backwashed and stuff I wouldn't drink after him. He's gotten to the point that he doesn't backwash now though so I share drinks with him. He's 18 months he likes to share and it really doesn't bother me...although I always check for backwash (floaters) he also likes to feed me which at first I found gross but got over it he's got slobbery fingers but I take his slobbery kisses anytime I can take his slobbery finger feedings if it makes him happy

I'm in the minority here. I follow how your husband thinks. Unless one of us is sick, I don't see the big deal. 14, 11, 3, and a baby in the house. I won't drink after the toddler, but this is because he purposefully launches floaties into his cup. I have no issue eating after any of them. Hell, some weeks that's the only way I get food in me. When money is tight, the kids eat first and I have survived off of their leftovers. Such is life.

i won't do it with any of my nieces or nephews - or my lo when it's born for the simple fact mouth to mouth contact (including food from one mouth to another or sharing drinks) is the number one way to catch meningitis and meningococcal. it almost took one of my little nephews life and now weknow how you catch it no one in our family will risk it with anyone else!!

Joshua and I share water and arrowroot cookies (to be fair he licks the cookie a whole 3 times then gives it to me lol). I am 25 and my mom and I share drinks and food. We are just a sharing family I guess.

My aunt is that mother who used to share half chewed gum with her daughter :)

Just to clarify my mom will have a bite of my burger or some of my fries... she is not taking food from my mouth lol)
